Truman Aquarium is a great spot to take the family and is connected to Discovery World. It’s a smaller aquarium than those in larger cities and it’s still a fun place for the kids to explore and learn about the freshwater eco system. The life size ship is also a really great piece for everyone to explore and enjoy. Check it out!

It was OK. Parking was a joke, seriously. Went "good friday" Parking lot attendant had a full parking garage yet still had people pulling in to drive around aimlessly looking for a place to park. $20 to park in garage. Otherwise the business next door will also charge $20 to park in their lot. And the whole street around the area has "no parking" signs everywhere and the ticket for parking there is $35 (ask me how I know) but literally it was the ONLY place to park within a half mile of the place. No real reason for the "no parking" on the street other then to make milwaukee money with tickets, being the predators police are they love that revenue for b.s. laws that are in place for no other reason then to generate revenue for the state. Got inside and it's $25 per person or $20 for a kid. Cool place with neat things to see and learn about. Half the buttons your supposed to press to see what happens DO NOT WORK, or work very poorly. Example: press a button to show how water is shed off the land during a rain event, the button turns on the water but the water barely trickles out and does not go down the slope like it should making their display 100% useless because its not flowing water like it should to create the effect.... The ship hanging from the ceiling was cool but cramped inside, kid loved it though. Fish pet area the water was deep so smaller kids 5yo or younger have zero chance of touching a stingray or sturgeon, yet it's "for kids" gift shop was overpriced like they usually are and my kid got a $25 stuffed animal. 2adults +1 child= $70 parking/parking ticket $35, stuffed animal $25. Spent $130 to go for a family of 3. It was OK but VERY busy. Most irritating part was the lack of parking and driving around for a half hour looking for a spot that was open, even though it was in a no parking spot it was the only option. I would recommend going early or on a less busy day. We went at 2pm on a holiday "good friday".

Very cool aquarium since it has a tunnel that has the overhead tank but it is a very small aquarium. On a crowded day it leaves very little space to move around. Exhibit halls are narrow which can be hard of your in a wheelchair or using a child carriage. The touch tank was cool. Kids really enjoyed that. My main complaint is the café and paid parking, is too small for the amount of people that visit. The café is not equipped to handle the amount of visitors. No food was ready. Lines were ridiculous. Waiting times for food was worse. Barely no seating. Who designed that?

Great place for the whole family to visit. Lots of stuff to learn or to refresh knowledge as well to entertain. Currently the cafeteria/restaurant is not open, however a lunch bag can be taken and eaten… there are a couple of tables and chairs at the entrance, right after the check-in booth.

El Acuario es pequeño porque forma parte del "Discovery World" Pero esto no le quita la magnífico que es. Se ubica en el sótano del edificio, antes de bajar hay un gran ventanal con vista al lago Michigan.. Cuando bajas por el ascensor o las escaleras, al llegar al área del acuario La primera vista es un Gran tanque con muchos peces. Da la sensación de estar bajo el Lago Empiezas a caminar y tienes vista a varios tanques, las paredes, el piso.. hasta que llegas a un túnel, donde pasas por dentro del agua.. Muy genial la verdad! Tmb tienen un pequeño submarino donde los niños juegan, pero la parte más divertida es donde Pueden tocar las mantarayas y el tiburon.. Allí mi niño, casi se lanza al Agua intentando tocar la mantaraya 😂

Visited from Michigan and had a great experience! Our daughter loved seeing everything and the place flowed very well. Easy to walk and keep occupied.
